Thanks for the comments, Yea I know I was crazy to shoot for some of those schools. But I seriously was didn't have a clue how much my low LSAT would distroy my 3.65 GPA. Also yea i'm working with kaplan, I got a tutor and am already scheduled for the October LSAT. I will be applying to Cooly among other schools. I mean I can still hope to transfer, right? I really like the idea of asking for Part time also, I will definately do that. I think that I heard that I can add an extra request asking that they consider me for Part time as well if I don't get into fulltime. Can I do that?? Also does anyone know of a list of schools that doesn't average the LSAT? Thanks everyone

i'm not positive, but does Drexel have any sort of law school? i thought i heard something about that... but maybe it isn't ABA approved yet? might be something to look into.....?

Drexel has a school starting next year...its their inaugural year - its not ABA approved, but it will be in a year or two (at most)

Thats a pretty rude thing to say to someone you don't even know...maybe the OP had familial problems that caused stress/hardship/lack of time to study, or maybe just maybe not everyone is as good at standardized tests as you (presumably) are

don't worry latin lord. your time will come. i was once in your position. my practice tests were in the late 130's range and was always very frustrated and depressed. i took a powerscore class, and invested in extra tutoring time to help me with the games sections. took the test in october and got a 154. i know that compared to many people on this board, my score is not all that, but it was good enough for me.if you can, hire a tutor because i felt that is really what helped me. i also took about a year to prepare/study read the bibles cover to cover.

lol... this thread was so long ago... i'm amazed it is still around!! Reading it almost brings tears to my eyes. I'm happy that my story has been so inspirational to them.... I wish all of you luck in your up in comming cycle and hope that you all have the success that I'v had.

Low LSAT means nothing.!! my LSGPA is now a 3.2! top 1/3 of the class!! Beat kids who got over a 160 on the LSAT.. So again! the LSAT MEANS NOTHING!! IT IS JUST A STUPID WAY FOR SCHOOLS TO SEPARATE STUDENTS!! gOOD LUCK TO ALL!!

No wonder you did poorly on the LSAT. What makes you think that you can draw a reasonable conclusion about the correlation between LSAT scores and law school success based on one person's experience?

Feeling sad because you're afraid your 171 won't guarantee you a spot on law review?
